Subject: syscall record for mq_unlink

Hey Steve,
So, Happy Thanksgiving, is this a bug? :P
Audit record:
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1164127960.194:49): arch=c000003e syscall=241
success=yes exit=0 a0=2aaaaab2171d a1=2aaaaab2171c a2=7fff69a6cab8

The syscall prototype in the kernel is as follows:
asmlinkage long sys_mq_unlink(const char __user *u_name)
The function all is:
ret = mq_unlink(msgqid);
The value of char *msgqid is:
2aaaaab2171c
So, the question is:
Why is a0=(msgqid)+1, and why is a1=(msgqid)
I am not sure if this is some crazy "feature" or if this is a real bug.
I know there are some syscalls that differ from the glibc-level calls,
but this one violates the function internal to the kernel.
Any ideas? This is on the lspp.55 kernel.
Thanks,
Mike
